Arrowshot does not state its damage type.

    Reproduction steps:
    1. Deploy Bok Raider.
    2. Deploy any valid target you can damage with Arrowshot.
    3. Attack it with Arrowshot.
    4. Arrowshot will deal physical damage instead of whatever your champion's damage types are.

    Suggested solution: change description from "This unit makes an attack at Range 3-6." to "This unit makes a Physical non-basic attack at Range 3-6." instead.

    this isn't really a bug.
    things like arrowshot,bloodrage,pummel and so on will use the damage type of the first basic attack belonging to a unit.
    like if you have a unit that has frost damage type on its first basic attack then arrowshot should be doing frost damage when used.
    edit :
    when units that don't have a basic attack gain skills like arrowshot it'll end up doing physical damage on default.

    Check the screenshot, then the unit that deals the damage in combat log, THEN the abilities on the left. You're looking really silly right now. :p

    i wasn't really looking at your picture i just saw the thread title and assumed what was going on from it.
    but from what i saw in the pic bok raider should've have done fire damage with arrowshot instead of physical since its base attack type is fire.
    so thats definetly weird.

    Arrow Shot is specifically Physical.

    only thing i can guess from this bug is maybe the game can't figure out what damage type the base runes have with arrowshot have so its just going to the default of physical.

    It's not a nerf. It already does do that and has always done that.

    really?
    maybe i'm confusing arrowshot with similar skills.
    always thought skills like arrowshot just followed runes base dmg type.

    It never said the damage type, but yea, it's always been Physical.
